AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The technical effects of this patent are to provide a furniture piece that is easy to assemble and ship in small packaging.

Problems solved by technology

Pre-assembled furniture often comes at a higher price premium because labor costs to assemble the furniture are more and because shipping a fully assembled piece is more expensive.
Although many user-assembled furniture pieces exist, they often require numerous fasteners and screws which are threaded into wood.
If done incorrectly, the structural integrity of the furniture can be compromised.
In addition, the shipping / packaging size is often relatively large and thick which increases costs in shipping, warehousing and retail shelf space.
